Abstract
A family of two-phase interleaved LLC (iLLC) resonant converter with hybrid rectifier is proposed for wide output voltage range applications. The primary sides of the two LLC converters are in parallel, and the connection of the secondary windings in the two LLC converters can be regulated by the hybrid rectifier according to the output voltage. Variable frequency control is employed to regulate the output voltage and the secondary windings are in series when the output voltage is high. Fixed-frequency phase-shift control is adopted to regulate the configuration of the secondary windings as well as the output voltage when the output voltage is low. The output voltage range is extended by adaptively changing the configuration of the hybrid rectifier, which results in reduced switching frequency range, circulating current, and conduction losses of the LLC resonant tank. Zero voltage switching and zero current switching are achieved for all the active switches and diodes, respectively, within the entire operation range. The operation principles are analyzed and a 3.5 kW prototype with 400 V input voltage and 150–500 V output voltage is built and tested to evaluate the feasibility of the proposed method.
